War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 320 is very important! (Thanks to the 'book friends' for the reward!)

Peking, Military Committee.

At noon, a shirtless man in the courtyard was already panting, his body covered with a layer of crystal clear sweat beads, shining in the sun as if covered with oil. The whip in his hand was broken into pieces, with only half of it still there...

The military committee was already in a turmoil. Zhao Xiangbei, the commander of the 26st Regiment of the th Army, who was in charge of this mission, was so angry that he started to glare at them. In front of their army commander and He Yingqin, he shouted at all costs: "I didn't take it!"

"If I take a penny, my whole family will be fucking killed!"

"Laoding, Chief He, I brought her back directly from the train station. She had 70,000 yuan on her body, and now it's all here. The gold and silver jewelry in the woman's bag are also here. We had her hair disheveled and her clothes ripped, but there was only this much money..."

"I really didn't take it!"

He Yingqin was sitting in the office: "But Xu Chaoyang said it was 100,000."

Just these words made Zhao Xiangbei so anxious that he immediately rushed out of the room and shouted at the sweaty big man: "Beat him for me. Even if I beat him to death today, I have to make things clear!"

Little did they know that Xu Chaoyang was afraid that if they were not allowed to participate, the money would be embezzled by the garrison in Peiping, so he exaggerated the figures. Xu Chaoyang probably himself did not expect how he could go from being a person who could lie at all to a person who could tell lies without blushing or feeling any pain after telling them.

"beat!"

In the middle of the Beiping Military Branch, a woman with her hair loose was lying on the ground crying. The director of the thermal power plant had been beaten into shock and was lying on the ground with whip wounds all over his body, and blood foam was coming out of the corners of his mouth...

"Zhao Tuan, if you hit anyone again, you'll die..."

"If he doesn't die, then I should fucking die! Someone, come and pour some cold water on him to wake him up. I don't believe this bastard is so stubborn. Find a pair of scissors. If he doesn't talk anymore, I'll fucking cut off all his fingers!"

……

Tianjin Shipyard.

bell!
Xu Chaoyang, who was in the meeting, had just finished introducing the current situation when Li Hansheng defined the incident: "Old Yang, I think Comrade Chaoyang did the right thing in handing over a large number of Liao-13-type ships to the 29th Army. Right now, ensuring the continued productivity of the shipyard is the top priority. Only if production can continue here can our soldiers have a steady supply of weapons to use. Relying solely on the machines you transported to the Soviet area is too inadequate."

"Chaoyang, since it is not the right time to produce the 'General Liu Rifle' yet, can we put it aside for now and continue to produce the Liao 13 type with only the existing mineral resources?"

"You don't know, our soldiers are in great need of weapons and ammunition. The Liao-13 is something we can only dream of but cannot even obtain."

This becomes a question that requires a decision: whether to upgrade weapons or to arm the soldiers first to ensure combat effectiveness. Both options have their own advantages.

According to Xu Chaoyang's idea, it is necessary to make the soldiers in the Soviet area suffer first, because the halo of the great man can shine on them, and they can also use this time to completely improve General Liu's rifle. Afterwards, use all production capacity to directly raise our army's troops to a level that completely surpasses the Japanese invaders, and completely solve the large-scale bloodshed and sacrifice caused by weapons and equipment problems in the future.

If we choose to provide weapons and ammunition to the Soviet area under the existing conditions, we can ensure that the soldiers will have combat effectiveness immediately. As for whether Dagu Shipyard can spare time to research and produce General Liu's rifles after the expansion of the troops, it is hard to say. Maybe it will be delayed for a long time. However, doing so can ensure that our soldiers will start to reduce bloodshed and sacrifice from now on...

At this moment, the phone rang.

"Hey?"

"Commander He, I'm Xu Chaoyang."

"What? This old guy only has 70,000 on him? Impossible, he couldn't have squandered 30,000 in such a short time?"

"I lied. How could I lie? That's what the director of the shipyard told me. I asked our regiment staff officer Lao Yang to sign the military order with the director of the thermal power plant. The order is still here with me!"

Whatever Xu Chaoyang said was reasonable, because it was his account anyway. "Chief He, if you insist on saying 70,000, then I, Xu Chaoyang, will have to admit it..." Xu Chaoyang was still submissive, but his submission was no different from indirect provocation.

"fart!!!"

The voice in the microphone suddenly exploded, as if He Yingqin was furious: "What you mean is that I, He Yingqin, relied on my official position to withhold the 30,000 yuan from you, Xu Chaoyang?"

"Sir, I didn't say that!" Xu Chaoyang shouted this into the phone very formally, and then said, "Anyway, I said I would send someone, but you didn't let me..."

"Xu Chaoyang, you bastard..."

The voice of the military subcommittee came over the phone: "Report, the commander of the first battalion of the 217th Regiment of Tianjin Shipyard has sent a tribute to Commander Xu..."

"Throw them all out to feed the dogs!"

"I just don't believe it. I, He Yingqin, can't figure out how to handle this little money!"

"Hold up that factory manager and keep fighting!!"

Snapped!
The phone was hung up after being slammed down. Xu Chaoyang then curled his lips and smiled, raised his head and looked at the others and said, "Let's continue, continue."

"I think that the research on the 'General Liu' rifle should continue. You just said that we paid a very high price in several encirclement and suppression operations. In other words, if we had more advanced weapons, perhaps this kind of thing would not have happened..."

Zheng Zhi interrupted, "Comrade Chaoyang, if we already have the ability to produce the Liao-13, why can't we do both? Wouldn't it be better to use the extra energy to ensure research while ensuring production?"

"How is that possible? The old masters in the shipyard are not our people. They don't have the qualities of dedication, devotion, and sacrifice. They are just ordinary people... Who wouldn't want to get off work quickly so that they can go home to their wives and children and have a warm bed?"

"Then make them our own, we can teach them these qualities."

Xu Chaoyang was suddenly stunned and looked at Zheng Zhi.

"Of course, we respect everyone and their efforts and dedication. The current situation does need to be improved. Moreover, all of us have been through days like this. Chaoyang, I think you should let us try. As you said, the worst result is this anyway. Why not try to take one more step forward?"

"So, Lao Yang and Lao Li will temporarily carry out the ideological work of the soldiers of the 217th Regiment. We will form a labor union in the shipyard and unite the workers in private. You, the commander of the security regiment, will pretend to know nothing. This will also help us from the side if something goes wrong. What do you think?"

Xu Chaoyang pointed to the phone and said, "Then, what about the thermal power plant?"

"Chaoyang, this is not an order. We are discussing the whole process with you. We are here just to help you complete your work better, not to take anything away from you. Do you understand?"

"What do you mean?"

Li Hansheng smiled and patted Xu Chaoyang's arm. "It's not our idea, it's the idea of ​​my hometown. My hometown recognizes your ability very much. We originally came to improve the thinking of the soldiers of the 217th Regiment at your request, that is, to assist you in your work. If you want to take control of the thermal power plant, then our next task is to continue to form a trade union at the thermal power plant and unite the workers. But there is a prerequisite for doing all this, which is to help you better control the Dagu Shipyard."

"This place is so important to my hometown."

He looked at Xu Chaoyang again: "You are too important to my hometown."
